I'm intrigued by Presious Passion in this race; should he go. We're accustomed to horses wiring on the AP turf by setting slow fractions (or collapsing after having set slow fractions -- whatever the case my be). If this horse is able to set fast fractions on that course and hold off this field, a more impressive effort would be hard to imagine. This could turn out to be a very special race.

This will be my first trip to Arlington and of all the horses who will be there this is the one I'm most excited about for the very reason above. Hoping for some firm ground a little catch me if you can by Presious Passion.

I agree with you and I can see a similar outcome to the Rossi Gold where Rumor Has It did his best Presious Passion impersonation on Saturday. I don't handicap races before the actual PP's come out (As some do ex. PG), but it looks like he could have it his own way on the front end.

Scav, Da Skill says mid 80's and dry, so I'll go with the top weather handicapper in the country. It's like he makes the weather Morning Lines and others follow. Looking forward to a great day of racing.

Is this the European odds Brock? No doubt the Euro's always go off higher over here.

I thought Acoma was pointed to the Beverly D too. Did I miss something that changed?
